113.

After final judgment in favor of the State Board of Health, it shall
file a certified copy of the same with the county commissioners in the
county where such judgment is obtained, or with the Mayor and City
Council of Baltimore City, as the case may be, which judgment shall
be a lien upon the property of the defendant, to be collected by the
said county commissioners, or the said mayor and city council, [as
the case may be, in the same way as taxes on real property are now
collected; the said lien to bear interest at the rate of six per centum
from the date of judgment and to include the costs of the trial, and
it shall not be subject to discount or abatement of any kind, nor shall
said commissioners or the Mayor and City Council of Baltimore City
so collecting the same be entitled to make any charge for such collec-
tion.]! the said lien shall bear interest at the rate of six per centum
from the date of judgment and shall include the costs of the trial.
The County Commissioners or the Mayor and City Council of Balti-
more City shall devise a schedule of payments to provide for the pay-
ment of the lien plus costs of trial and interest over a period of ten
years from the date of judgment; payment of said lien shall be in
accordance with this schedule, except that any unpaid balance may
be paid in full at any time. If the lien, including interest and costs
of trial is not paid within 10 years from the date of judgment, it shall
be collected by the County Commissioners or the Mayor and City
Council of Baltimore in the same manner as taxes on real property
are now collected.

114.

The county commissioners of any county of the State, or the Mayor
and City Council of Baltimore, as the case may be, shall pay over to
the State Board of Health all judgments, costs and interests which
they may collect by virtue of the powers conferred by Sections 109
to 117, and the State Board of Health of Maryland, upon payment to
it of any judgment, interest and costs shall pay said costs to the
justice of the peace or other court of record, as the case may be, and
such judgment, interest and costs shall be entered "satisfied." Pro-
vided, however, if the County Commissioners of any county or the
Mayor and City Council of Baltimore expend county or Baltimore
City funds in abating the respective nuisance, then all judgments,
costs and interests which they may collect by virtue of the powers
conferred by Sections 109 to 117, excepting court costs, shall be paid
to the Treasurer of the respective county or Baltimore City.
